I just searched on the grub-devel archived for evms, if there was any progress about it which didn't make it into this bug report. The last message on this report is from Mathias dated 11. February.
I found this with evms on grub2's upstream changelog: 2008-07-25 Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * util/getroot.c (find_root_device): Skip devices that match /dev/dm-[0-9]. This lets the real device be found for any type of abstraction (LVM, EVMS, RAID..). (grub_guess_root_device): Do not traverse /dev/mapper (for LVM) and /dev/evms (for EVMS) before traversing /dev. If a /dev/dm-[0-9] device is found first, find_root_device() will now skip it. 2008-02-12 Robert Millan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * util/getroot.c (grub_guess_root_device): Inspect /dev/evms before /dev (like it is done for /dev/mapper). This doesn't provide support for EVMS, but at least it is now easy to identify the problem when it arises. The lenny/sid version has it's last upstream changelog from 07-23 so 2 days before the first change. Mathias could you please try it with the current lenny/sid version and with the newer one in experimental, if these evms devices now work better with grub2 ? Hopefully we can get rid of this old report :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
